Abstract
A method, computer program product, and circuit are provided for noise and bound management for a Resistive Processing Unit (RPU) array having an op-amp. The method includes reducing the noise in an output signal from the RPU array by using a largest value, in a sigma vector having a plurality of values, as a representation for a window for an input signal to the RPU array. The input signal to the RPU array is formed from the plurality of values. The method further includes sensing saturation at an output of the op-amp. The method also includes managing the bound to eliminate the saturation by reducing the plurality of values from which the input signal to the RPU is formed.
